Don’t think I’ve enjoyed a spirit, ever. It’s just varying degrees of not liking it, from tolerable to utterly ****ing rancid.

If I was forced to have a few shots it would be a Patron Tequila.

Which is strange because I do love a Long Island Iced Tea.
yeah, I can't do tequila unless it's in a long island ice tea or margarita, both of which are liable to **** me up by the middle of the 3rd

I think it's gonna be a busy xmas. People are going overspend as usual. But maybe over compensate this year.
Online shopping will be bonkers, and food stores will go mental.
 
Quite fancy the good stuff and then add a cheap supermarket spiced to add to mulled festive drinks.

El Dorado I reckon.


It's ten o clock Saturday night, Mrs has gone to bed, I don't fancy a beer, there's no wine open, and I don't have a malt.

This is when I should have a bottle of quality rum in the house.

Less Christmas parties and gatherings means less food bought imo. Can’t see it being as mental as every other year.

I think people are over compensate this year.. Lot's of wasted food, etc. Online shopping is gonna go bonkers.

I think Amazon are in for another big pay day like. I dunno bout other folk but I buy less food online shopping, cos in the supermarket I pick up things I hadn’t thought about buying.

I'm just seeing things pick up at work mate, and overtime till the end of the year.
 
My Mrs wants an Apple Watch or something, and her hair done, so that’ll be easy enough for me to sort out.

I’ve asked her for another upgrade for the car, but she’s not happy about more horses.

Pretty sure that must have been you I saw with all those pops n bangs going round the costa drive through at the Trafford centre
 
My boy is being really creative at the minute. Last weekend he made his own Lego set from various pieces including writing out two books of instructions to go with it, and right now he's drawing his own spot the difference pictures to ask his mum to do.

Wanna keep encouraging this and gonna buy some stuff to this effect for Christmas, any suggestions?

You can get some great technical kits for kids. Make your own miniature solar powered car and stuff like that. Might be a bit old for him at the mo ?

Those science experiment kits are pretty cool too. Just bear in mind he might get properly into it and blow your kitchen up when he’s about 14.

Not me homes, hate that place.

Yeah I only went there to fill up. Place was full of tricked out Golfs and BMW’s driving round at 15mph popping and banging. Must be one of the local car meet places.

Don’t forget to fill up btw.
